I just finished this wonderful T-shirt quilt for one of my customers. The blocks include him and his children. His wife had this made for his birthday which is this next week so I will be shipping it today. The little dress is from his daughter along with a Yankee baseball shirt and some really nice other shirts. I actually had a hard time cutting these up as they were so nice and the little dress was so sweet. I tried to keep as much of it intact as possible. I am sure he will like it and his wife is very excited.

I wished I had such a devoted friend that would give me such a beautiful gift as this T-shirt quilt. She wanted me to use tie dye fabric and I found some from fabricsandtrimmings shop on Etsy. I just think this turned out so pretty. I hope she likes it as well as I do. I sure had fun making it.

When my sisters and I were very young all three of us loved to make things. I think that was the way kids entertained themselves in those days. Our mother sat us down with old clothes and needles and thread and we made our dolls clothes.
My creativity grew from there and I found myself in high school making all of my own clothes. I did get a lot of attention with my matching outfits including hats. Since I was shy maybe that was my way of creating my own world and at the same time getting attention.
I finally did get tired of making clothes and went into quilting. The first year I quilted I made every family member quilts, quilts and more quilts.
You can only make so many quilts and so many bags before you have no space left. What is a very nutty creative person going to do about this?? Well you are going to open an ETSY shop and sell some of this stuff, right?? http://fabricartist21.etsy.com/My neighbor asked me to make her a T-Shirt Quilt and I have been doing that for over a year now. I take special orders through my Etsy shop. I have become very busy with this business and will continue to create t-shirt quilts as long as their are customers that want them.
